The social productive forces and the comprehensive national strength has been enhanced notably. Our position of economic aggregation was boosted steadily in the world. The standard and quality of living of both rural and urban residents were ameliorated obviously and we moved form the subsistence level to the comfortable level triumphantly.To promote the construction of Chinese new socialist countryside and to solve the issues concerning agriculture, countryside and farmers is pivotal for building a well-off society in an all-round way. We always care about the condition of consumption as the reflection of living standard. Comparing to the torrid growth of the consumption of urban area, the rural consumption shows a trend of slowing down and it also less than the average level. So analyzing the present situation of the rural consumption, investigating the factors restricting the consumption, and accelerating the start-up of rural market are of vital importance. Increasing the consumption of rural households is not only to improve the quality of their living standard, but also to get the development of our national economy stably.In this thesis, we deeply investigate the status and trend of the change of rural consumption both qualitatively and quantitatively and obtain new judgment and conclusions with bounds of research papers concerning rural consumption. From various respects, the consumption standard, the consumption structure, the consumption tendency, the consumption environment and habits in rural area is studied and the consumption behaviors as well as mentality is analyzed. From our analysis, we point out the main factors suppressing the rural consumption and propose some advice for enlarging the rural consumption.
